Couch 171: Scams R Us

What does this say about their attitude to the their aquarium exhibits?

Ooh! I've been to the London Dungeons. It was a really long time ago. Kinda creepy but I liked it.

Hmmm I think there's something fishy going on now that you mention it?!?

The company is Merlin: You can also pick from: Shrek's Adventure, Madame Tussauds and the London eye.

I hope you got some sleep, rainbow!

Sounds like you have some fun plans, Lemon! I would probably go to the Freud museum just to see THE couch, too!

(I think) I am going to call ex-t today, and ask her to email me the pics. And probably also explain why I sent the email a week or so ago. Even though she likely knows I'm still processing the loss of 'us', I didn't mention the car accident and that's part of it too. I'm nervous about talking to her though, sheesh.

I went on a school trip when I was 11. I found it kinda scary to be honest, and don't really think it's my cup of tea, but my 15 year old sister thought it would be cool. I'm trying to steer her towards something like indoor trampolining. I like museums but we always do the natural history and science.Last time it was the British, after I dragged her to an brain event hosted by University college.

I just want to do something fun and enjoy myself a bit before I have to start worrying about my final exam.

The nerves are very understandable and it sounds like a good idea if it will you move on, the script you mentioned on the other thread sounds like a very good idea.

I think it was rude for your ex-therapist to not respond to your email, ArtieSwimsOn. Why do you need to explain yourself to her? From what I understand, she had said that she would give you these pictures. No explanation should be needed.

Thanks, but I don't feel like it was actually, I get it. I'm technically not her client anymore and I told her I was going to call anyway so there was really no need for her to. I pretty much knew she wouldn't. What I want to explain is that I sent it cuz of the accident which I hadn't told her about. If I had, she likely would have replied.

Thanks. I usually write out what I want to say when I call her so I don't ramble incoherently lol

Really anxious about my session today after our last chat. The current plan is to go in and tell him I think he needs a break from me and see where it goes from there.

We just read this short story in my summer class (it’s very good), and dammit, Amazon doesn’t have its own show with Glenn Close as a rage-filled zombie available?

I'm spooked today.

Something happened.

I love the Onion

I hope you do have fun! You deserve a break from preparing for exams!

Thanks for this SD- I liked the post!

"The report concluded that your therapist may not have even been saying that to make you feel better, after all, but simply to buy some time until she can get the hell out of there and stop talking to you."

The guilt of not studying is kinda getting to me already though. I've already had 7 days off. But where I am right now I can't concentrate properly. I know I know I'll have to start by the 25th though.

I'm skipping my session with R tomorrow- it's kinda hard to fix a rupture if you're not there but I personally just don't want to see him. I thought I would be a crying mess but surprisingly I'm not.

@@ I saw the trailer for the series "The rain" and thought you might like it along with "the man in the high castle", which I'm going to go back to watching after I finish "Revenge of the Romanovs ". Inspired by an article I saw which mentioned the fact that it's 100 years since the Russian Imperial family were executed.

>4 mins into "the rain" and the young kid is irritating me- seat belts!!

I hope your session goes well NP.

We're here if you want to talk about it.

Well, so much for calling her "ex-t". I just talked to her about sending my sand tray pics which she said she will do and I also explained the real reason behind my email and she said well of course, you don't just walk away cold turkey and not have feelings anymore (or something) Especially after the car accident and I said yeah part of me wishes we'd ended over a few sessions and looked at the pictures together and talked about them and stuff and she said we still can so long story short I'm going back for a short time, I committed to finishing out the summer. That felt good in the part of me that misses 'us' so much. My logical brain, well I am rolling my eyes at myself for this.

So whoever bet that I would go back - you won haha

Ah there's nothing wrong with going back Artie- you have to do what's best for you.

Thanks, Lemoncake.
(Deleted the insurance part cuz I was wrong. Out of network deductible is separate. Ugh.)

Well t did say today that her previous offer stands for weekly at a reduced rate so we'll see. I have enough in my HSA right now to cover half her rate weekly for 3 months. And they put like $124 every 2 weeks in it, mostly out of my paycheck. So. I'm still afraid h is gonna throw a fit...

Pay up you guys (ha ha just kidding art!).

I think a certain person at work saw my si scars. I don't trust her.

Don't trust her to what? What are you worried she'll do?
